Creeps, Perverts and Weirdos: Creepoid!

Although I had not heard of them until hours before I went to interview them, Creepoid was worth the time and gas. I went to their Manayunk home/rehearsal space to catch up with the creeps and hear them play some tunes. I was impressed by their professional sound and the amount of weed consumed in one hour. Creepoid will be playing a show this Sat 4/17 with Kurt Vile at Beautiful World Syndicate. Should be an awesome show!

HEFF: So tell me a little bit about the band. To be honest I had’nt really heard of

you guys until very recently.

P: Well, Anna and I are married and we are in another band called The G. Pete used to play in it too and he ended up leaving the band. There was a really bad snowstorm this year where we were stuck inside for a couple days and Sean slept over and got real drunk and we had this 1956 reel to reel tape machine and we recorded some songs as like a two-piece and then Anna joined in and Pete after that. We recorded this 7” EP that we just released at our first show last week.

HEFF: Brand spankin’ new! The name, Creepoid?

P: Um… well I mean he’s a pervert (points to Petejoe) and he’s a weirdo (points to Sean) so, like we just figured Creepoid.

HEFF: It works. Very literal.

P: Everybody used to call Petejoe, like all the girls in Austin, called him Creepjoe

HEFF: So, what do you do that is particularly creepy or pervy?

S: You’ll find out (laughs).

P: In high school he used to ask girls out and then drive to an industrial park and be like, “so what’s up?” and just park. And even if they just hung out and talked he is still that creepy guy who took them to the industrial park.

HEFF: Do you have anything to say in your defense?

PJ: I am not denying… I’m just saying the details may have been altered.

A: Slightly.

PJ: I am really not that creepy!

P: It was a long time ago. That’s why we can joke about it.

HEFF: Directed to Sean: So they said you’re creepy too?

P: No No No just a weirdo!

HEFF: My bad. A weirdo.

S: See you don’t have to be worried about me. I am just weird.

A: Well you have to be a little worried.

S: Nah. I don’t know how I am weird. Of course I don’t. If I did I wouldn’t do it.

P: He has a weird collection of photos… animal books. You know he is like in his mid-twenties.

HEFF: Like children’s books?

**They all begin disputing whether or not they are children’s books.

P: He is just a weird dude. Like he was always in those advanced classes in high school.

HEFF: So he is smart?

P: Uh yeah.

A: Sean is weird because everyday at dinner time we go “Sean do you want some dinner?” And he goes, “Nah….well ALRIGHT!” Then we’ll all be eating and he’ll come up and take a little plate and be like, “Is this cool, is this cool?”

HEFF: So, so far you are smart and polite and like animals (laughs)?

PJ: (Laughs) It’s the worst!

S: Oh and I wear glasses!

P: And he plays bass with his fingers… weird!

All: (Laugh)

HEFF: Creepy! What do you label your sound as?

P: We think of a really cool part of a song and then try to play it as slooooow as we can. Slower than as slow as we can and it still comes out…

A: It’s pretty fast.

PJ: Plus it’s easy to grasp the idea of something if it’s slowed down anyway… No matter what we did with computers we always started with these reel to reels that he said.

P: So, I don’t know what those kids in California… like the garage, bedroom pop or whatever the fuck they are calling it now but like we do it with old ass tape machines in dirty basements in the east coast.

PJ: The tapes themselves are old tapes that had been previously recorded on.

P: Like old Christmas music.

PJ: The more you record on a tape… it lessens the quality of it.

A: Everything is supposed to be dirtier.

PJ: We were really careful about how we used the tape that was available first.

P: I wouldn’t say we go out of our way to sound dirty it’s just been shown to us in a way that works well.

HEFF: Cheap and efficient. But it worked out and sounds cool.

P/PJ: Right… yeah.

HEFF: So, say you got signed by a label and they wanted you to make a real recording that didn’t sound so lo-fi, would you do it?

P: We would be so happy because we wouldn’t be paying for it!

PJ: I would like just not have to pay for such an expensive hobby.

P: I would love to mass-produce our music. You know, this has only been our first 7” and we sold out of the test presses, all thirty of them. We just got 300 in the mail and those are already starting to go. It’s all moving so fast. I’d really like to have a label pick it up so they could be like “yo, lets do a whole record of all the singles you have.” They are all home recorded and then from there I would look into going into the studio. I’ll take what I can get.

PJ: Even if we just continued ourselves, and then they paid for the tour.

P: Well touring is kind of a problem because Anna is a college professor at two different schools in the city and Sean has a good job… a real job (graphic designer) and I am a private contractor.

HEFF: How do you guys write the songs?

P: It is collaborative. We do everything together since the band has been a band but the original couple songs on the EP… when Sean was in his louder, more aggressive, guitar rock, noise rock band he would eat mushrooms and lock himself in his bedroom and record songs by himself…

HEFF: Maybe this is why you’re weird?

P: (Laughs) Yeah! But those actually became the really good like hooks and changes on the EP. I am excited to see how the new stuff will turn out. So it’s cool when you have even more people doing mushrooms!

HEFF: What do you guys think if the Philly music scene?

P: It’s so all over the place right now and everyone is in their own little world and especially still being in our other band The G. We play so many different shows. We’ll play at The Ox or something like that and then Kung Fu Necktie. Two weeks ago we played a show at the Barbary with Best Coast and it was sold out but a couple days before that The G played a sold out show with Love Is All and Japandroids. So, it’s like we are still playing the same shows but a little different.

HEFF: Is The G similar sounding?

P: It’s like a complete Sonic Youth worship band.

PJ: It is not to be confused with like a side project though.

P: But the Philly scene is awesome. I know I like that band Far-Out Fangtooth.

HEFF: What are you guys listening to now?

S: Reigning Sound.

PJ: I’ve been listening to Heavy Hands LP.

P: The Strange Boys. They’re friends of ours from Austin but I just picked up their LP. They are a really great band. I’m psyched they are touring with Spoon and shit… Dinosaur Jr. is always on the turntable. I just got a Nintendo…two Nintendo top loaders at a thrift store. It was twenty-five bucks, came with the power glove and 38 games. It’s the shit. Lately, before I go to work and climb on scary roofs and shit I’ll take a bong rip and play Nintendo and listen to Dinosaur Jr. Mario three… I still can’t beat that fucking thing.

HEFF: You could upgrade to a Wii.

S: Oh no, too many buttons.

P: No, we play horseshoes outside.

HEFF: Outdoor kids. What do you guys think of the term Hipster?

PJ: My grandmother told me I was (0ne) a couple years ago. But this was the same lady that wouldn’t let me inside of her house on my sixteenth birthday because I had a Dead Kennedys shirt on and she was like, “that’s a disgrace to our Irish heritage.” She freaked the fuck out and kicked me out.

A: That is such a hipster thing to say. You are such a hipster (laughs).

HEFF: Generally negative feelings toward the term then?

A: (Totally joking) Well I lived in Brooklyn so like yeah. I think everyone doesn’t want to say they’re a hipster but then at the same time doesn’t want other people to NOT think of them as a hipster.

PJ: My drug dealer from Austin, used to call me a hipster. He was like well you’re always downtown and you’re always doing shit. What the fuck does that mean, man? I work downtown!

Friend of Band: Do you like how they never actually answer your questions?

HEFF: It’s true but it’s okay.

Another Friend: I always think about how on Seinfeld, Elaine called Kramer a hipster doofus and I don’t want to be that guy!

P: It is a problem if you are perpetually a hipster.

S: You can only be a hipster for a certain amount of time.

A: We are leaving that time. On our way out.

P: You know how I know I am getting old? I no longer own any His Hero Is Gone records…

A: And you don’t drink 40s anymore.

P: Yeah I don’t drink those anymore. I drink New Castle. It’s my jam! And since I’ve gotten older I don’t collect noise tapes any more.

A: Yes you do! What are you talking about?

P: (Laughs) Eh whatever.

HEFF: So then you’re not that old yet.

A: He just turned 27.

P: Yeah my birthday was yesterday.

HEFF: Happy Birthday!

All: No! It was Monday.

P: I don’t remember!

A: Getting old.

HEFF: Then I retract my Happy Birthday.

PJ: Ohhh retracted.

HEFF: Any last words?

S: Well I am curious. Is it safe to say you haven’t really heard us?

HEFF: Oh no I have… But like a few hours before I came here. I liked what I heard though!

P: Tell everyone to come to our show! Tell them to check out Phonographic Arts, shop at Beautiful World Syndicate and try to get the new Creepoid record, Yellow Life Giver and we’ll have a new tape and or 7” out soon! We will be heading out on tour at the end of May, East Coast tour with Sore Eros from Boston.

HEFF: Anything else?

P: Smoke weed everyday.

Kill Me In My Face!

When Kill You in the Face contacted us here at Hipsters Eat For Free to see if we could help promote their huge upcoming show, I jumped at the chance to sit down and chat with these fine fellows. With a name like Kill You in the Face, I was awaiting some sick ass stories about fights, rage and drugs but those things were not in their agenda. Instead Mike Romeo (guitar), Alejandro Torres (drums) and James Saul (keyboard) let me see what normal, down to earth guys they really are. I was amazed at how connected they all seemed to each other, finishing each others sentences, laughing simultaneously or even saying the exact same thing at the exact same time! Like, Siamese twins.

Of course we talked about their show this Sunday night at Kung Fu Necktie with Twin Thousands and what a huge deal it is that Gretta Cohn formally from Cursive, is in Twin Thousands but we also talked about my favorite three things; music, hipsters and Philly. I met up with them at their practice/living space in South Philly. Nelson, their feline friend made himself comfortable on my lap and we got started.

HEFF: Can you guys tell me a little bit about your creative process?

MR: It’s mostly really pretty collaborative. Like someone will start playing a riff and someone else will embellish upon it and someone else will be like oh that’s pretty cool.

HEFF: And where do they lyrics come from?

MR: Lyrics always come last. We kind of work the lyrics around the music. I know a lot a lot a lot of other people do it the other way… cause we have parts of a story that we are telling and we sort of fit chunks in where we can.

HEFF: What are you guys in the process of now?

MR: Now we are starting to plan spring and summer. We’ve got a big show in a couple of weeks. In March we’ll be in Danger Danger (Gallery). We are going to try to do some regional shows.

AT: A lot of new songs too.

MR: We just recorded a song for the label we are on Punk Rock Payroll. They are putting out a comp and we recoded a new song for that and then we are going to have like some B sides and one of the songs from Mighty Atlas on there.

HEFF: Any possibility for a full length coming out sometime soon?

MR: That’s what we’re working on.

AT: We have about six or seven new songs so far. We are constantly working on new stuff. We have a lot of ideas for some new songs. But we are all really pushing for a release regardless. I feel like most likely it will happen no matter what.

HEFF: Is there a time frame?

JS: No, not really. Plus, we also want to work on the stuff a little more and make sure it’s really good.

MR: And figure out the packaging (laughs)!

HEFF: I am excited for the next great packaging idea. (They give me The Mighty Atlas ray gun.) Did you make these yourself?

MR: Yeah. We make them here.

HEFF: How did you decided to make the ray guns?

MR: Um how did we? Oh! Alright. Pretty much we were thinking a lot about how we wanted to do the release because we did the split and that was the board game and The Extraodinaires area always doing their books. So we thought okay how are we going to do this? And with this story that we are telling we started kicking around the idea that it would be cool to start like vinyl toys and try to sell them at the merch table and just do something collectible like that. And that started to morph into well what if the toys were the album and then it just rollercoastered from there.

HEFF: I assume this is coasting you a lot of money to make?

MR: Yeah (laughs). I mean we don’t have as good of a profit margin as most other bands but I mean it becomes worth it.

JS: I feel like it’s really unique and awesome. I can’t believe it happened.

AT: To see the faces of the happy people.

MR: Like when we go to a town we have never really been to before and we set up merch and we play and people wonder over and they’re like “ Well what the fuck is that?”

HEFF: I know that The Mighty Atlas has a story that it portrays. Will the new album follow suit?

MR: It’s going to be the same. Everything we do is just sort of pieces of a bigger story. Should we go into the story?

HEFF: Yeah!

MR: Well the title The Mighty Atlas is about our main character, Atlas. This is set in the semi-near future. Basically it’s a unified earth, but we’re invaded by alien forces and Atlas is a turncoat and his son is basically the leader of the earth rebellion. They come down and blind sight us and they win. Humans are in camps and there’s a revolution and stuff like that. You know there are some of those themes on the EP here but I think the full length and a lot f the songs we are doing are really focusing on Atlas’ past, his failures, his victories, his woman, Helena.

AT: Pretty epic.

JS: We haven’t written any lyrics for the songs yet we just know what the story is going to be about even though we just have the music now. It totally feels right.

AT: The first song will be the song from the compilation.

HEFF: I like the way you guys seem so in tune with each other.

MR: We do. We work really well, for the most part. You know there are rough days. Like we’ll start working and I’ll be crabby and short with Adam or we’ll start practicing and Ale will come out of the room be like “let’s get this shit over with.” You know but it is what it is. For the most part we have a good dynamic and a good balance.

HEFF: Where did you get the name for your main character?

MR: The Greek mythology. I read somewhere that a common misconception is that Atlas is holding up the earth, which is what I thought but it turns out he’s actually holding up the sky. That’s his punishment from Zeus for rebelling. Then when we started really hashing out this idea, that came up. And that it would be kind of cool if Atlas was our character because now he is that separation between the aliens (the sky) and the people of earth (the earth).

HEFF: Do you guys ever write about life experiences?

AT: I think it definitely reflects on our stories. We try to be as emotional as we can you know to sort of evoke the emotion of whoever we are talking about in the story.

HEFF: You guys are fairly new in the grand scheme of things. How are you planning on defining your sound?

JS: I feel like it’s coming out a lot in these new songs, just the way we are playing.

MR: And I think that’ll be the definition of our sound, that we don’t always necessarily fall into a sound. If we start writing a song and it’s a little bit heavier and has breakdowns, we’ll do that. Or like the song we just recorded is super poppy, like very Reggie and the Full Effects. But it doesn’t matter. We would never stop ourselves and be like “no that’s too this or it’s not that enough.

AT: And it’s funny because I wish that people could hear the other stuff we’re working on. It’s so different, so much heavier…

JS: It’s still cohesive. Like we are starting to think of some order of like what’s happening on the full length. It’s good the way that the songs, they do have all these different kind of feels to them in some way but they are also together. Like it sounds like we’re writing an album and it’s really cool.

HEFF: So, you mentioned that you all have different musical backgrounds. What are they?

MR: I grew up on a lot of punk and hardcore.

HEFF: There is a lot of clear hardcore influence.

MR: Yeah, like when I grew up there was a lot of bands with breakdowns and a lot of heavier stuff and then I leaned a little more on the punk side of things where I feel like you (AT) were more metal minded.

AT: (laughs) I love heavy metal. Death metal.

JS: I like heavy metal too. Like, Iron Maiden. I love Iron Maiden. We all kind of like brutal music and break down kind of stuff. We definitely all have a love for breakdowns.

HEFF: It is definitely evident in your music

MR: And even beyond that when we started to get a little older we started falling more into Cursive …

AT: The early Emo.

MR: Built to Spill.

JS: D.C. hardcore.

MR: Q and Not U

JS: Rites of Spring

Simultaneously: Fugazi!

JS: Oh and I’m obsessed with the new Beach House Album

AT: I love dance music. Pop Dance

JS: Michael Jackson

HEFF: In every interview and article I read about you guys they mention your somewhat misleading name.

MR: We actually got a really shitty review one time because our name was misleading.

JS: The late Steve Wells. He said that our name should be Mouse Cock (laughs).

MR: Or Fussy Eaters. That was another one.

JS: Or Three of Us Wear Glasses.

MR: If you look on Philly Weekly.com, it’s on there.  We got like a really good article in the Weekly and then a week later we got this other one. Same publication. The dude was so pissed off.

HEFF: How do you guys take bad reviews?

MR: That one was a little rough. We remember it really well. But that was the first really bad one. But afterwards it was more funny than anything. And I would like to start a side project called Mouse Cock.

HEFF: I would support that.

MR: But Steven Wells, goddamn him (laughs).

HEFF: What do you guys think of the Hipster lifestyle that has kind of taken over the world right now?

AT: Some would say we are hipsters.

MR: I Don’t know. I don’t feel particularly hip (laughs).

JS: Why can’t I just like records and record shopping?

MR: Well, you know as far as like the term hipster, I think it’s, I don’t know I think it’s a little funnier than it is actually serious.

AT: It sort of alienates you a little bit. You know? I feel like I can get down in all different sorts of situations.

JS: Yeah you don’t want to be pretentious.

MR: I mean I am pretty snarky but…

AT: People are judgmental by nature. It’s just the way it goes.

MR: If you are okay with that then you are a hipster.

HEFF: And if you wear tight jeans.

MR: My jeans are moderately fitted… and I am wearing this hoodie sweatshirt (laughs) But I don’t wear neckerchiefs!

HEFF: Then maybe you’re not a hipster.

MR: well, to old people I am.

AT: I eat meat!

HEFF: That’s a big no-no if you want to be a hipster.

JS: I am vegan.

MIKE: Me too.

HEFF: Me too.

MR: Hipsters unite (laughs)!

HEFF: So are you guys super excited to play with… (Twin Thousands)

AT: YES!

MR: Oh my god yeah!

JS: Dude!

MR: It’s really crazy. I feel like whenever I talk about it I am on the verge of gushing and I don’t want to be. I want to be cool and collected about it but I am really excited about it.

AT: I’m mainly concerned with hammering out the songs and just being very tight. I can’t wait to practice tonight.

JS: It’s going to be great!

AT: It’s going to be a great show.

HEFF: How did you come in contact with Twin Thousands?

MR: Frede at the label had been in touch with Steven from Kung Fu Necktie and he was like “yo, we need another band.” And Frede said, “We got one.” And then I got a text message at work: “What are you doing the 28^th?” And I was like “uh I don’t know, something I guess” and then he told us. I am just really excited because you know Greta from Cursive. She played on the Ugly Organ and that album was such a big deal when it came out.

AT: And Twin Thousands are really good.

MR: I was almost expecting like person was in big band and now they are in mediocre band but they’re really good and that makes me nervous… There are always a certain amount of nerves I feel like when we play; the ride to shows, in the van are always a little quite (laughs).

HEFF: Is there anything you guys do before a show to calm yourselves down?

MR: Nah. We pretty much just get there and inquire about drink tickets.

AT: Right before you play it’s pretty intense. People are looking at you, everyone is waiting for you.

MR: Everyone is waiting for you with their arms crossed.

AT: but it doesn’t out weight the feeling that you get. It’s such a great feeling to play.

HEFF: You are the first band I’ve interviewed to admit that you get nervous when you play.

MR: I think anyone who says they don’t is either full of shit or they don’t really care about what they’re doing. I feel like what makes me nervous is just the fact that we are going up there and doing something that we put so much work into and so much of ourselves into.

HEFF: What do you guys think of the Philly music scene and the fans? Is there a special connection?

AT: I feel like you have to make a full connection with the fans in Philly.

MR: It’s a rollercoaster… I feel like Philly is a tough town. The people who come out to shows I feel are a little harder to impress and even if you do impress them I feel like it’s a little harder for them to…

AT: Get used to you.

MR: And be like good show or like uncross their arms. The best part of Philly music is the smaller shows. Like, JR’s Bar and Danger Danger and basements. Even at the R5 level it’s harder for people to warm up to you. But as far as all the other bands in Philly, everyone is so cool… There was a pretty big pop in the Philly music scene and then it sort of fizzled out really quickly. But I realty really think as a city, as a scene we’ve got a fighting chance we just have to be less compartmentalized…

Adam Plante, the bassist enters.

MR: Boy did we slander you (laughs)!

What’s Going on?

Philadelphia has an amazing amount of fantastic live shows coming our way in the next couple of months. Scroll down to find a comprehensive list of our favorite event calendars for around the area.

We wanted to highlight some notable shows coming up.

Kurt Vile and The Violators Philadelphia’s favorite long haired lo-fi experimentalists are playing Wednesday, February 17 at

TheBarbary with Fucked Up: hardcore punk at it’s best.

.

Mission of Burma may be old but they are still ridiculously good and pretty much historical figures when it comes to rock as we know it.  Mission of Burma should be on everyone’s bucket list. They will be at The Church Thursday, February 18 with Sleeper Agent.

St. Vincent will be bringing her painfully pretty songs to a seated sanctuary show at The Church Thursday, February 25 with Wildbirds and Peacedrums who also put on a spectacular show.

We are all about Surfer Blood right now! They will be playing The Barbary Monday, March 1. They bring their warm weather, 1990’s pop sounds to our cold, modern, Philadelphia ears.

Rouge Wave will be putting on a seated Sanctuary show at The Church Thursday, March 4, full of harmony, melodies, and choruses to sing to. It’s goose pimple music.

Our muse, namesake  and favorite showmen ever, Man Man, are doing a long overdue hometown Philadelphia show. Oh how we’ve missed them. No more crossing state lines for our fix! They will be debuting new songs galore at the their Troc show on March 5.

Henry Rollins?! Yep, really Henry Rollins is coming to the Sanctuary Thursday, March 11. Sounds nuts but it’s true. The Church is just one of many stops he is making on his Frequent Flyer Tour.

The Ruby Suns invoke big sunglasses, psychedelic swirls, and songs like “Let the Sunshine In“. Check out their 6-piece band at Kung Fu Necktie with Toro Y Moi and Power Animal, Philly’s own experimental wonders on Thursday, March 25.

The xx is sold out and we don’t have tickets and I am pretty much too mad to even comment on this one. If your going and want to do a review or interview for us, e-mail me at andrea@hipsterseatforfree.com The show is at The Church Monday, March 29. We will probably be there begging for tickets.

Fanfarlo is the kind of indie pop that can take over. It sticks around a while and the pay off is more then instant grat. The show is Wednesday, March 31 at The Church. I am guessing this one will sell out.

The forefathers of indie rock Nada Surf will be playing at The Church Thursday April 1. If you haven’t been paying attention since the 90’s, it’s time to see just how much perfection these guys put out this decade.

The Thermals will be giving us an excuse to jump around like madwomen in what is sure to be a sweaty packed Church on Thursday, April 15.

Girls: Image Isn’t Everything.

When the California lo-fi band, Girls, took the stage last night at Kung Fu Necktie, I was a little concerned. The motley crew looked like it would rather be anywhere else but at that exact place at that exact time. Christopher Owens was a mousey little guy who looked terrified at the thought of playing for the obviously indifferent audience. Not at all what I had expected of the free thinking, drug consuming, cult surviving, writing wizard  that is Owens. I wondered how this band would hold up in front of this testy Philadelphia audience.

However, Owens and his band were quick to win me over. It took a few songs to warm up but soon Owens was wearing his heart on his sleeve and bearing his soul for all to see. It wasn’t an extremely eventful show and the rest of the band seemed to want to fade into the background, but they played beautifully and backed up Owens as he shared the “sad song in his sweet heart.”

They covered most of the aptly named Album, literally breaking my heart when they performed “Hellhole Ratrace” and “Lauren Marie.” I would have loved to hear “Big Bad Mean Mother Fucker.” That seemed like an obvious choice for a live show to me, but it wouldn’t have fit the mood or the zombie like crowd.

I am glad I went. It wasn’t a bad time. However, listening to Album laying in the sun with your eyes closed feeling melancholy is a much more rewarding experience.

Also, listen, watch, and read album review for Girls, here.
